    This is a good idea. I’ve had to learn how to disassemble and fix phones for the wife mostly and me leastly. She broke a camera glass - and a glass coated back plate. My issues were battery replacement and a USB port replacement and one headphone jack replacement. All things I managed to learn how to fix to keep our 5 to 7 year old phones going until we were damned ready to get a new one. Durability is crap for a reason.

    I am so opposite of this - you could never sell me a foldable - I can’t even find one Android game that is worth playing that isn’t a remake of an old PC game. That folding will eventually kill the device earlier than a non fold. I just don’t see the draw… I have a tablet or laptop or pc for games and other stuff.

    I am in this camp- little brick with a replaceable battery because if I want to watch a show or play a game I’ll use a different device. Absolutely no one caters to us. I would also pick a Linux phone if I could in that form factor but in the US there’s not even a smattering of choice. To make a Linux phone work you’d need an emulation layer to make android apps work (I honestly don’t know the state of Linux phones on this ) but without it you’d be using a windows phone with craptastic app support. That’s what really killed WIndows phone. Lets keep hoping brother.




  • Time after time we put our heads on the chopping block thinking this Tim it will be different. Do me a favor, save this and let me know how it goes if she somehow gets the nod from the DNC which she won’t. But if she does and once again we lose to a repub you let me know how that went. I’ve heard plenty of women say they don’t want a woman in office. I don’t agree. But this country is not yet enlightened enough to make that happen.
